Fashion Is . . .

Price : $10.00$24.95

Fashion Is . . . encourages readers to think about the myriad
definitions of fashion. A Dior day suit. An Yves Saint Laurent
minidress. A Japanese kimono. A Ferragamo shoe. A British court
ensemble. A Schiaparelli hat. Fashion is glamour and attitude, texture
and pattern, sexy and prim, luxurious and eccentric. It is above all a
rich and evocative means of expression for both the designer and the
wearer. Gathered here are costumes, regional dress, haute couture, and
accessories from prehistory to the present, as well as paintings,
sculpture, and decorative arts relating to modes of dress.
